It's a very simple project of power supply. There's nothing special inside: well none integrated voltage stabilizer 78xx, power transistors and filtering condensers with summary capacity 24.700uF
Most power goes to transistors, that's why we need such big radiator.
Power supply was made to work with big project that require effective power, system should work with maximum 25A
Firstly I wanted to put one powerfull transistor, but i've found two BD250 at my drawer and didin't want to waste them
Additional system consist stabilizers : 5V and 12V/1A ( to power integrated circuits, cooler system and more)
Board is made on thermotransfer mode (could be better)
Tests results are good:
- it can hold two car bulbs
- stabilization is quite good: no voltage pulsation at 20A
- when shorting ( without fuse) temperature of transistors rise, but not very much, and nothing wrong except that.
- cooling: with this radiator no need to install ventilator - it's just a little hot on big current)
